Emily Kuhn is a jazz trumpet player, composer, and educator based in Chicago. This performance celebrates the release of her debut album, "Sky Stories," out October 30 on BACE Records.
"Sky Stories" is an homage to Chicago’s natural beauty and its diverse musical communities. The album brings Kuhn’s lyrical compositional voice together with some of the most innovative musicians from the jazz, classical, Latin, folk, and world music scenes in the city, weaving diverse musical threads into a lush soundscape that floats freely between improvisation and orchestration. This performance will feature a condensed version of her chamber jazz ensemble, Helios, offering an intimate and playful interpretation of the music on the album.
